EST-4012 Course Design
Students will explore the elements of course design for hunters, jumpers, and equitation. The technical regulations that govern course design for competition will be reviewed. Site evaluation, assessment of competition level, and planning of discipline-specific courses will be introduced. Emphasis will be placed on the striding options for lines, combinations, and related fences, as well as the factors that influence the horse's jumping effort. Students will learn to design and set courses for the appropriate level of a horse and rider, as well as the specific discipline - hunter, jumper, or equitation."
